When you think of the big earthquake that will devastate the Western U.S., you probably assume it will hit California. But the massive one we’re supposedly long overdue for will actually hit the Pacific Northwest, devastating Seattle and much of 700 coastal miles from Vancouver to NorCal’s Mendocino Cape.
This area lies on the Cascadia subduction zone. The Cascades are the volcanic mountain range that run parallel to the fault, some 100 miles inland, and are formed by the Juan De Fuca tectonic plate colliding with, and sliding underneath, the North American plate. This geological battle will eventually result in the weaker North American plate buckling violently as it gives way to the mounting pressure, dropping several meters in a few seconds.
This will cause a 9.2 magnitude megathrust earthquake that will last around 4 minutes and will be 30 times more powerful than anything California’sSan Andreas fault can produce.
What happens after that is truly terrifying.
Since the event will happen in the ocean, it will send a tsunami, a wall of water more than 15 meters high, rushing back toward coastal areas like Puget Sound and the heavily populated Seattle area. As it washes ashore it will destroy everything in its path.
The catastrophic tsunami triggered by the 2011 Tōhoku 9.0 earthquake in Japan was responsible for the vast majority of the 18,000+ deaths suffered in that disaster. And Japan even had an early warning system that sensed the initial tremor and automatically activated to save countless lives by shutting down power plants and railways, and performing various other vital services before the full quake and tsunami struck.
The Pacific Northwest has no such early warning system.
In fact, three years ago the citizens of Seaside, Oregon rejected a plan that would’ve raised their taxes in order to move three schools out of the tsunami inundation zone. [Show clip of devastated school administrator describing why that’s such a mistake.]
The voters came to their senses this November and funded a version of the plan, but the story is representative of the lack of awareness those living in the Cascadia Subduction Zone have about the uncertain ground they actually live on.
Part of the reason why the region seems to be in a complete state of denial is because the Juan De Fuca plate hasn’t caused an earthquake in 317 years. It’s a sleeping giant that’s 75 years overdue for an awakening.
To get a sense for how destructive a 9.2 quake would be, we need look no further than the 1964GreatAlaskanEarthquake of the same magnitude that sent tsunami’s rippling throughout the pacific, one of which killed 12 people in Crescent City, California, some 1,600 miles away from the quake’s epicenter.
The biggest problem is that seismology was in its infancy when much of the Pacific Northwest was built, so Portland - for example - didn’t have a seismic building code until 1974. More than a million structures in the region would collapse or be irreparably damaged by a megathrust quake, three thousand of them schools. Other critical infrastructure that will either collapse or be greatly compromised will be half of all highway bridges, fifteen of the seventeen bridges spanning Portland's two rivers, two thirds of all railways and airports, one-third of all fire stations, half of all police stations, and two-thirds of all hospitals.
There will also be land liquefaction, a phenomenon whereby partially saturated soil loses strength and stiffness. Not only does 15 percent of Seattle lie on land vulnerable to liquefaction, but so does Oregon’sCritical Infrastructure hub where miles of gas lines converge.

Several hundred miles off the Pacific Northwest coast, a small tectonic plate called the Juan de Fuca is slowly sliding under the North American continent.
This subduction has created a collision zone with the potential to generate huge earthquakes and accompanying tsunamis, which happen when faulted rock abruptly shoves the ocean out of its way.
In fact, this region represents the single greatest geophysical hazard to the continental United States; quakes centered here could register as hundreds of times more damaging than even a big temblor on the San Andreas Fault. Not surprisingly, scientists are interested in understanding as much as they can about the Juan de Fuca Plate.
This microplate is "born" just 300 miles off the coast, at a long range of underwater volcanoes that produce new crust from melt generated deep below. Part of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the planet, these regions generate 70 percent of the Earth's tectonic plates. However, because the chains of volcanoes lie more than a mile beneath the sea surface, scientists know surprisingly little about them.
UC Santa Barbara geophysicist ZacharyEilon and his co-author GeoffAbers at Cornell University have conducted new research—using a novel measurement technique—that has revealed a strong signal of seismic attenuation or energy loss at the mid-ocean ridge where the Juan de Fuca Plate is created.
The researchers' attenuation data imply that molten rock here is found even deeper within the Earth than scientists had previously thought. This in turn helps scientists understand the processes by which Earth's tectonic plates are built, as well as the deep plumbing of volcanic systems. The results of the work appear in the journal Science Advances.

The Northwest Coast is the coastal regions of the Pacific Northwest and the Northwest Plateau (also commonly known as "The Interior" in British Columbia and the Inland Empire in the United States) is the inland regions. The term "Pacific Northwest" should not be confused with the Northwest Territory (also known as the Great Northwest, a historical term in the United States) or the Northwest Territories of Canada.

Family and early life

Phokás's grandfather, Emmanouíl Phokás (Gr: Εμμανουήλ Φωκάς), fled Constantinople at its fall in 1453, accompanied by his brother Andrónikos (Gr: Ανδρόνικος). The two settled first in the Peloponnese, where Andrónikos remained, but in 1470 Emmanouíl moved to the island of Cefalonia. Iákovos (Gr: Ιάκωβος), Ioánnis's father established himself in the village of Valerianos (Gr: Βαλεριάνος) on the island and came to be known as "the Valeriáno Fokás" (Gr: ο Φωκάς ο Βαλεριάνος) to distinguish him from his brothers.

North America covers an area of about 24,709,000 square kilometers (9,540,000 square miles), about 16.5% of the earth's land area and about 4.8% of its total surface.
North America is the third largest continent by area, following Asia and Africa, and the fourth by population after Asia, Africa, and Europe.

In 2013, its population was estimated at nearly 565million people in 23 independent states, or about 7.5% of the world's population, if nearby islands (most notably the Caribbean) are included.

The lithosphere, which is the rigid outermost shell of a planet (the crust and upper mantle), is broken up into tectonic plates. The Earth's lithosphere is composed of seven or eight major plates (depending on how they are defined) and many minor plates. Where the plates meet, their relative motion determines the type of boundary: convergent, divergent, or transform. Earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain-building, and oceanic trench formation occur along these plate boundaries. The lateral relative movement of the plates typically ranges from zero to 100mm annually.

A "megathrust" earthquake and tsunami will devastate the Northwest US, a geological region of the Pacific Ocean's "Ring of Fire" called the Cascadia Subduction Zone where major tectonic plates collide.

240 million years ago to 250 million years in the future

This animation shows the plate tectonic evolution of the Earth from the time of Pangea, 240 million years ago, to the formation of Pangea Proxima, 250 million years in the future.
The animation starts with the modern world then winds it way back to 240 million years ago (Triassic). The animation then reverses direction, allowing us to see how Pangea rifted apart to form the modern continents and ocean basins. When the animation arrives back at the present-day, it continues for another 250 million years until the formation of the next Pangea, "Pangea Proxima".
This question often come up. " Why dont you show East Africa rifting away from the rest of Africa?".
Here's why:
- Often, oceans open around a three-armed rift system called a “triple junction”. Only two arms of a triple junction open to form ocean basins. . In the case of East Africa, the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden are the two successful rifts. The East African rift sytem, starting at the Afar Triangle, in Ethiopiais an aulacogen or “failed arm” of a triple junction The East African rift system is a failed rift, much like the Benue Trough in the South Atlantic or the Labrador Sea in the North Atlantic.
- Let’s step back and ask the question, “What caused the rifting of the Red Sea , Gulf of Aden and East Africa in the first place? Though the Afar hotspot certainly helped to weaken the lithosphere, The driving force that caused the rifting was the subduction (beneath Eurasia , i.e., Iran) of oceanic crust attached to the northern margin of Arabia. (There was ocean an ocean between Arabian and Iran.) This subducting slab “pulled” Arabia northward tearing it away from Africa. This subduction zone has been completely destroyed by the collision of Arabia and Eurasia (Zagros Mountains). Consequently, there is no longer any “plate tectonic forces” acting on the African rifts and they will not continue to open.
- Also, if we look at the plate tectonic neighborhood of East Africa, we see that the dominant motion of plates in the western Indian Ocean is N-S, rather than E-W . In fact, a new subduction zone is just beginning in the central Indian Ocean (a zone of diffuse earthquakes ~ 5-10 S) that will continue to pull Australia and Antarctica northward towards Asia. In other words, there is no room for East Africa to expand towards the east. Rather the east coast of Madagascar will become a strike-slip margin accommodating the continued, northward movement of the Australian-Antarctic plate.
I hope this explanation is helpful. Of course all of this is scientific speculation, we will have to wait and see what happens, but this is my projection based on my understanding of the forces that drive plate motions and the history of past plate motions. Remember: “The past reveals patterns; Patterns inform process; Process permits prediction.”
Notice how the areas of green (land), brown (mountains), dark blue (deep sea), and light blue (shallow seas on continents), changes throughout time. These changes are the result of mountain-building, erosion, and the rise and fall of sea level throughout time. The white patches near the pole are the expanding and contracting polar icecaps.

When you think of the big earthquake that will devastate the Western U.S., you probably assume it will hit California. But the massive one we’re supposedly long overdue for will actually hit the Pacific Northwest, devastating Seattle and much of 700 coastal miles from Vancouver to NorCal’s Mendocino Cape.
This area lies on the Cascadia subduction zone. The Cascades are the volcanic mountain range that run parallel to the fault, some 100 miles inland, and are formed by the Juan De Fuca tectonic plate colliding with, and sliding underneath, the North American plate. This geological battle will eventually result in the weaker North American plate buckling violently as it gives way to the mounting pressure, dropping several meters in a few seconds.
This will cause a 9.2 magnitude megathrust earthquake that will last around 4 minutes and will be 30 times more powerful than anything California’sSan Andreas fault can produce.
What happens after that is truly terrifying.
Since the event will happen in the ocean, it will send a tsunami, a wall of water more than 15 meters high, rushing back toward coastal areas like Puget Sound and the heavily populated Seattle area. As it washes ashore it will destroy everything in its path.
The catastrophic tsunami triggered by the 2011 Tōhoku 9.0 earthquake in Japan was responsible for the vast majority of the 18,000+ deaths suffered in that disaster. And Japan even had an early warning system that sensed the initial tremor and automatically activated to save countless lives by shutting down power plants and railways, and performing various other vital services before the full quake and tsunami struck.
The Pacific Northwest has no such early warning system.
In fact, three years ago the citizens of Seaside, Oregon rejected a plan that would’ve raised their taxes in order to move three schools out of the tsunami inundation zone. [Show clip of devastated school administrator describing why that’s such a mistake.]
The voters came to their senses this November and funded a version of the plan, but the story is representative of the lack of awareness those living in the Cascadia Subduction Zone have about the uncertain ground they actually live on.
Part of the reason why the region seems to be in a complete state of denial is because the Juan De Fuca plate hasn’t caused an earthquake in 317 years. It’s a sleeping giant that’s 75 years overdue for an awakening.
To get a sense for how destructive a 9.2 quake would be, we need look no further than the 1964GreatAlaskanEarthquake of the same magnitude that sent tsunami’s rippling throughout the pacific, one of which killed 12 people in Crescent City, California, some 1,600 miles away from the quake’s epicenter.
The biggest problem is that seismology was in its infancy when much of the Pacific Northwest was built, so Portland - for example - didn’t have a seismic building code until 1974. More than a million structures in the region would collapse or be irreparably damaged by a megathrust quake, three thousand of them schools. Other critical infrastructure that will either collapse or be greatly compromised will be half of all highway bridges, fifteen of the seventeen bridges spanning Portland's two rivers, two thirds of all railways and airports, one-third of all fire stations, half of all police stations, and two-thirds of all hospitals.
There will also be land liquefaction, a phenomenon whereby partially saturated soil loses strength and stiffness. Not only does 15 percent of Seattle lie on land vulnerable to liquefaction, but so does Oregon’sCritical Infrastructure hub where miles of gas lines converge.

When you think of the big earthquake that will devastate the Western U.S., you probably assume it will hit California. But the massive one we’re supposedly long overdue for will actually hit the Pacific Northwest, devastating Seattle and much of 700 coastal miles from Vancouver to NorCal’s Mendocino Cape.
This area lies on the Cascadia subduction zone. The Cascades are the volcanic mountain range that run parallel to the fault, some 100 miles inland, and are formed by the Juan De Fuca tectonic plate colliding with, and sliding underneath, the North American plate. This geological battle will eventually result in the weaker North American plate buckling violently as it gives way to the mounting pressure, dropping several meters in a few seconds.
This will cause a 9.2 magnitude megathrust earthquake that will last around 4 minutes and will be 30 times more powerful than anything California’sSan Andreas fault can produce.
What happens after that is truly terrifying.
Since the event will happen in the ocean, it will send a tsunami, a wall of water more than 15 meters high, rushing back toward coastal areas like Puget Sound and the heavily populated Seattle area. As it washes ashore it will destroy everything in its path.
The catastrophic tsunami triggered by the 2011 Tōhoku 9.0 earthquake in Japan was responsible for the vast majority of the 18,000+ deaths suffered in that disaster. And Japan even had an early warning system that sensed the initial tremor and automatically activated to save countless lives by shutting down power plants and railways, and performing various other vital services before the full quake and tsunami struck.
The Pacific Northwest has no such early warning system.
In fact, three years ago the citizens of Seaside, Oregon rejected a plan that would’ve raised their taxes in order to move three schools out of the tsunami inundation zone. [Show clip of devastated school administrator describing why that’s such a mistake.]
The voters came to their senses this November and funded a version of the plan, but the story is representative of the lack of awareness those living in the Cascadia Subduction Zone have about the uncertain ground they actually live on.
Part of the reason why the region seems to be in a complete state of denial is because the Juan De Fuca plate hasn’t caused an earthquake in 317 years. It’s a sleeping giant that’s 75 years overdue for an awakening.
To get a sense for how destructive a 9.2 quake would be, we need look no further than the 1964GreatAlaskanEarthquake of the same magnitude that sent tsunami’s rippling throughout the pacific, one of which killed 12 people in Crescent City, California, some 1,600 miles away from the quake’s epicenter.
The biggest problem is that seismology was in its infancy when much of the Pacific Northwest was built, so Portland - for example - didn’t have a seismic building code until 1974. More than a million structures in the region would collapse or be irreparably damaged by a megathrust quake, three thousand of them schools. Other critical infrastructure that will either collapse or be greatly compromised will be half of all highway bridges, fifteen of the seventeen bridges spanning Portland's two rivers, two thirds of all railways and airports, one-third of all fire stations, half of all police stations, and two-thirds of all hospitals.
There will also be land liquefaction, a phenomenon whereby partially saturated soil loses strength and stiffness. Not only does 15 percent of Seattle lie on land vulnerable to liquefaction, but so does Oregon’sCritical Infrastructure hub where miles of gas lines converge.

Several hundred miles off the Pacific Northwest coast, a small tectonic plate called the Juan de Fuca is slowly sliding under the North American continent.
This subduction has created a collision zone with the potential to generate huge earthquakes and accompanying tsunamis, which happen when faulted rock abruptly shoves the ocean out of its way.
In fact, this region represents the single greatest geophysical hazard to the continental United States; quakes centered here could register as hundreds of times more damaging than even a big temblor on the San Andreas Fault. Not surprisingly, scientists are interested in understanding as much as they can about the Juan de Fuca Plate.
This microplate is "born" just 300 miles off the coast, at a long range of underwater volcanoes that produce new crust from melt generated deep below. Part of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the planet, these regions generate 70 percent of the Earth's tectonic plates. However, because the chains of volcanoes lie more than a mile beneath the sea surface, scientists know surprisingly little about them.
UC Santa Barbara geophysicist ZacharyEilon and his co-author GeoffAbers at Cornell University have conducted new research—using a novel measurement technique—that has revealed a strong signal of seismic attenuation or energy loss at the mid-ocean ridge where the Juan de Fuca Plate is created.
The researchers' attenuation data imply that molten rock here is found even deeper within the Earth than scientists had previously thought. This in turn helps scientists understand the processes by which Earth's tectonic plates are built, as well as the deep plumbing of volcanic systems. The results of the work appear in the journal Science Advances.

pretty bad rap slash poem Tectonics plates RAP/POEM
LYRICS:
Im a tectonic plate!
Im known to create
Big time tsunamis and earth quakes
My brothers and sisters are as big as me
But my cousins? You can barely see!
We are the 21 plates
Under the united states
South America and North
We move back and forth
We are deep in the ground
Hardly making a sound
Until that one big moment
When I show how potent
I can really be
When another plate runs into me
Tectonic plates
When 2 of us collide
You should run and hide
This is when
Bad things happen
We rub against each other
And create pressure
Until one of us slips
And heads up towards the fish
Up to the ocean or up to the ground
The force of the movement
Makes a really loud sound!
The ground starts shaking
And the earth starts quaking
Cities become destroyed
People become unemployed
Lots of people are killed
And lots become ill
The cause of this?
The plates shift!
And when then move and hit
Its called continental drift

This animation shows the plate tectonic evolution of the Earth from the time of Pangea, 240 million years ago, to the formation of Pangea Proxima, 250 million years in the future.
The animation starts with the modern world then winds it way back to 240 million years ago (Triassic). The animation then reverses direction, allowing us to see how Pangea rifted apart to form the modern continents and ocean basins. When the animation arrives back at the present-day, it continues for another 250 million years until the formation of the next Pangea, "Pangea Proxima".
This question often come up. " Why dont you show East Africa rifting away from the rest of Africa?".
Here's why:
- Often, oceans open around a three-armed rift system called a “triple junction”. Only two arms of a triple junction open to form ocean basins. . In the case of East Africa, the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden are the two successful rifts. The East African rift sytem, starting at the Afar Triangle, in Ethiopiais an aulacogen or “failed arm” of a triple junction The East African rift system is a failed rift, much like the Benue Trough in the South Atlantic or the Labrador Sea in the North Atlantic.
- Let’s step back and ask the question, “What caused the rifting of the Red Sea , Gulf of Aden and East Africa in the first place? Though the Afar hotspot certainly helped to weaken the lithosphere, The driving force that caused the rifting was the subduction (beneath Eurasia , i.e., Iran) of oceanic crust attached to the northern margin of Arabia. (There was ocean an ocean between Arabian and Iran.) This subducting slab “pulled” Arabia northward tearing it away from Africa. This subduction zone has been completely destroyed by the collision of Arabia and Eurasia (Zagros Mountains). Consequently, there is no longer any “plate tectonic forces” acting on the African rifts and they will not continue to open.
- Also, if we look at the plate tectonic neighborhood of East Africa, we see that the dominant motion of plates in the western Indian Ocean is N-S, rather than E-W . In fact, a new subduction zone is just beginning in the central Indian Ocean (a zone of diffuse earthquakes ~ 5-10 S) that will continue to pull Australia and Antarctica northward towards Asia. In other words, there is no room for East Africa to expand towards the east. Rather the east coast of Madagascar will become a strike-slip margin accommodating the continued, northward movement of the Australian-Antarctic plate.
I hope this explanation is helpful. Of course all of this is scientific speculation, we will have to wait and see what happens, but this is my projection based on my understanding of the forces that drive plate motions and the history of past plate motions. Remember: “The past reveals patterns; Patterns inform process; Process permits prediction.”
Notice how the areas of green (land), brown (mountains), dark blue (deep sea), and light blue (shallow seas on continents), changes throughout time. These changes are the result of mountain-building, erosion, and the rise and fall of sea level throughout time. The white patches near the pole are the expanding and contracting polar icecaps.

Is the cloud your single point of failure? Tectonic will fix it

Entire clouds can fail! This news keeps catching our eye ever more often in recent months. It was repeatedly demonstrated by providers once considered unbeatable. The most recent S3 outage took down almost all AWS services for multiple hours in US's busiest region. Many of today's most popular online services suddenly disappeared from radar. Can your application survive the next such event? With Kubernetes under the hood, it just might. Come to see how CoreOS's Tectonic offers multi cloud deployments that can save the day, when THAT day comes!

Possibly the most singular aspect of the architecture of Jrn Utzon is his particular concern for the expressivity of structure and construction. Grounded in the tectonic line of the modern movement, his work can be seen as part of a continuous development extending from Auguste Perret to Carlo Scarpa. Kenneth Frampton examines Utzon in the light of the notion that modern architecture is as much about construction as space and abstract form. Frampton contemplates Utzon's relationship to topics such as Japanese architecture, platforms and plateaus, roof work and earthwork, boat building and church building, before discussing the Sydney Opera House.

The Love Tectonic Live At Wigfest 2017

Here we have the recording of our first ever live performance at the brilliant Wigfest, a delightful festival situated deep in the Devon countryside.
The video has been spliced together from mobile footage, some set up on stage (watch for the bass vibrations!!) and some from members of the crowd. It fully encapsulates the fun we had and the amazing vibe from all the festival goers, for our first gig we were nervous to start but soon got into the swing of things, and the reaction from the crowd gave us a buzz beyond anything we were expecting, a truly brilliant day.
The set consists of our own tracks, and remixes we have created for The GravityDrive, a supremely talented band based in Dorset, a huge thank you goes out to them for giving us their blessing to use the remixes within o...

This is video #2 in a series that started on December 26th, 2016
Time period of 1/1/17 - 1/11/17 is of great concern because of an extreme 500 mb temperature divergence between North America and the north eastern Pacific Ocean. The jet stream anomaly that will form during this time period is an indicator of a high stress phase underway in the CascadiaFractureZone, the Juan De Fuca, and the San Andreas Fault systems. The NewMadridFault will be of concern as January 2017 progresses.
January 2017 is a high watch month for North America based on three factors.
1 - Jet stream anomaly
2 - Tectonic stress
3 - Esoteric code
The jet stream is influenced from magnetic lines of force within the molten core of the earth. Abnormal long wave jet stream patterns mirror abnormal magnetic lines of flux within the Lithosphere, which in turn affects plate tectonics.

The video has been spliced together from mobile footage, some set up on stage (watch for the bass vibrations!!) and some from members of the crowd. It fully encapsulates the fun we had and the amazing vibe from all the festival goers, for our first gig we were nervous to start but soon got into the swing of things, and the reaction from the crowd gave us a buzz beyond anything we were expecting, a truly brilliant day.
The set consists of our own tracks, and remixes we have created for The GravityDrive, a supremely talented band based in Dorset, a huge thank you goes out to them for giving us their blessing to use the remixes within our set, when you're done watching why not check out their stuff - https://www.youtube.com/user/thegravitydrive
We'd like to say a huge thank you to all the people involved with the recording, whether they knew they were going to be or not!! So big thanks go out to Gareth John, EllieForrest, Nic Lee and Helen Jackson.
Also, we'd like to send a massive thank you to Keith, Rachel (Becky!), Jamie and all the rest of the Wigfest crew for creating an amazing vibe, your festival really is one of the best.
Finally we'd like to say thank you to the crowd who made our first gig one we'll remember for all time, you lot were fantastic.
Oh and one last thank you goes to Henry Felton for securing the gig in the first place way back in December last year 😄
So there we go, enjoy the video, comment if you like, share it around.

US Threatened By Future Mega-Earthquake

A "megathrust" earthquake and tsunami will devastate the Northwest US, a geological region of the Pacific Ocean's "Ring of Fire" called the Cascadia Subduction Zone where major tectonic plates collide.

When you think of the big earthquake that will devastate the Western U.S., you probably assume it will hit California. But the massive one we’re supposedly long overdue for will actually hit the Pacific Northwest, devastating Seattle and much of 700 coastal miles from Vancouver to NorCal’s Mendocino Cape.
This area lies on the Cascadia subduction zone. The Cascades are the volcanic mountain range that run parallel to the fault, some 100 miles inland, and are formed by the Juan De Fuca tectonic plate colliding with, and sliding underneath, the North American plate. This geological battle will eventually result in the weaker North American plate buckling violently as it gives way to the mounting pressure, dropping several meters in a few seconds.
This will cause a 9.2 magnitude megathrust earthquake that will last around 4 minutes and will be 30 times more powerful than anything California’sSan Andreas fault can produce.
What happens after that is truly terrifying.
Since the event will happen in the ocean, it will send a tsunami, a wall of water more than 15 meters high, rushing back toward coastal areas like Puget Sound and the heavily populated Seattle area. As it washes ashore it will destroy everything in its path.
The catastrophic tsunami triggered by the 2011 Tōhoku 9.0 earthquake in Japan was responsible for the vast majority of the 18,000+ deaths suffered in that disaster. And Japan even had an early warning system that sensed the initial tremor and automatically activated to save countless lives by shutting down power plants and railways, and performing various other vital services before the full quake and tsunami struck.
The Pacific Northwest has no such early warning system.
In fact, three years ago the citizens of Seaside, Oregon rejected a plan that would’ve raised their taxes in order to move three schools out of the tsunami inundation zone. [Show clip of devastated school administrator describing why that’s such a mistake.]
The voters came to their senses this November and funded a version of the plan, but the story is representative of the lack of awareness those living in the Cascadia Subduction Zone have about the uncertain ground they actually live on.
Part of the reason why the region seems to be in a complete state of denial is because the Juan De Fuca plate hasn’t caused an earthquake in 317 years. It’s a sleeping giant that’s 75 years overdue for an awakening.
To get a sense for how destructive a 9.2 quake would be, we need look no further than the 1964GreatAlaskanEarthquake of the same magnitude that sent tsunami’s rippling throughout the pacific, one of which killed 12 people in Crescent City, California, some 1,600 miles away from the quake’s epicenter.
The biggest problem is that seismology was in its infancy when much of the Pacific Northwest was built, so Portland - for example - didn’t have a seismic building code until 1974. More than a million structures in the region would collapse or be irreparably damaged by a megathrust quake, three thousand of them schools. Other critical infrastructure that will either collapse or be greatly compromised will be half of all highway bridges, fifteen of the seventeen bridges spanning Portland's two rivers, two thirds of all railways and airports, one-third of all fire stations, half of all police stations, and two-thirds of all hospitals.
There will also be land liquefaction, a phenomenon whereby partially saturated soil loses strength and stiffness. Not only does 15 percent of Seattle lie on land vulnerable to liquefaction, but so does Oregon’sCritical Infrastructure hub where miles of gas lines converge.

Plate Tectonic Evolution of North America - Scotese Animation

This animation shows the plate tectonic and paleogeographic evolution of North America fro...

ALERT: Juan de Fuca Tectonic Plate Greatest Geophysical hazard to the continental U.S.

Several hundred miles off the Pacific Northwest coast, a small tectonic plate called the Juan de Fuca is slowly sliding under the North American continent.
This subduction has created a collision zone with the potential to generate huge earthquakes and accompanying tsunamis, which happen when faulted rock abruptly shoves the ocean out of its way.
In fact, this region represents the single greatest geophysical hazard to the continental United States; quakes centered here could register as hundreds of times more damaging than even a big temblor on the San Andreas Fault. Not surprisingly, scientists are interested in understanding as much as they can about the Juan de Fuca Plate.
This microplate is "born" just 300 miles off the coast, at a long range of underwater volcanoes that produce new crust from melt generated deep below. Part of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the planet, these regions generate 70 percent of the Earth's tectonic plates. However, because the chains of volcanoes lie more than a mile beneath the sea surface, scientists know surprisingly little about them.
UC Santa Barbara geophysicist ZacharyEilon and his co-author GeoffAbers at Cornell University have conducted new research—using a novel measurement technique—that has revealed a strong signal of seismic attenuation or energy loss at the mid-ocean ridge where the Juan de Fuca Plate is created.
The researchers' attenuation data imply that molten rock here is found even deeper within the Earth than scientists had previously thought. This in turn helps scientists understand the processes by which Earth's tectonic plates are built, as well as the deep plumbing of volcanic systems. The results of the work appear in the journal Science Advances.

Tectonic plates RAP/POEM Gepgraphy

pretty bad rap slash poem Tectonics plates RAP/POEM
LYRICS:
Im a tectonic plate!
Im known to create
Big time tsunamis and earth quakes
My brothers and sisters are as big as me
But my cousins? You can barely see!
We are the 21 plates
Under the united states
South America and North
We move back and forth
We are deep in the ground
Hardly making a sound
Until that one big moment
When I show how potent
I can really be
When another plate runs into me
Tectonic plates
When 2 of us collide
You should run and hide
This is when
Bad things happen
We rub against each other
And create pressure
Until one of us slips
And heads up towards the fish
Up to the ocean or up to the ground
The force of the movement
Makes a really loud sound!
The ground starts shaking
And the earth starts quaking
Cities become destroyed
People become unemployed
Lots of people are killed
And lots become ill
The cause of this?
The plates shift!
And when then move and hit
Its called continental drift
Tectonic plates

240 million years ago to 250 million years in the future

This animation shows the plate tectonic evolution of the Earth from the time of Pangea, 240 million years ago, to the formation of Pangea Proxima, 250 million years in the future.
The animation starts with the modern world then winds it way back to 240 million years ago (Triassic). The animation then reverses direction, allowing us to see how Pangea rifted apart to form the modern continents and ocean basins. When the animation arrives back at the present-day, it continues for another 250 million years until the formation of the next Pangea, "Pangea Proxima".
This question often come up. " Why dont you show East Africa rifting away from the rest of Africa?".
Here's why:
- Often, oceans open around a three-armed rift system called a “triple junction”. Only two arms of a triple junction open to form ocean basins. . In the case of East Africa, the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden are the two successful rifts. The East African rift sytem, starting at the Afar Triangle, in Ethiopiais an aulacogen or “failed arm” of a triple junction The East African rift system is a failed rift, much like the Benue Trough in the South Atlantic or the Labrador Sea in the North Atlantic.
- Let’s step back and ask the question, “What caused the rifting of the Red Sea , Gulf of Aden and East Africa in the first place? Though the Afar hotspot certainly helped to weaken the lithosphere, The driving force that caused the rifting was the subduction (beneath Eurasia , i.e., Iran) of oceanic crust attached to the northern margin of Arabia. (There was ocean an ocean between Arabian and Iran.) This subducting slab “pulled” Arabia northward tearing it away from Africa. This subduction zone has been completely destroyed by the collision of Arabia and Eurasia (Zagros Mountains). Consequently, there is no longer any “plate tectonic forces” acting on the African rifts and they will not continue to open.
- Also, if we look at the plate tectonic neighborhood of East Africa, we see that the dominant motion of plates in the western Indian Ocean is N-S, rather than E-W . In fact, a new subduction zone is just beginning in the central Indian Ocean (a zone of diffuse earthquakes ~ 5-10 S) that will continue to pull Australia and Antarctica northward towards Asia. In other words, there is no room for East Africa to expand towards the east. Rather the east coast of Madagascar will become a strike-slip margin accommodating the continued, northward movement of the Australian-Antarctic plate.
I hope this explanation is helpful. Of course all of this is scientific speculation, we will have to wait and see what happens, but this is my projection based on my understanding of the forces that drive plate motions and the history of past plate motions. Remember: “The past reveals patterns; Patterns inform process; Process permits prediction.”
Notice how the areas of green (land), brown (mountains), dark blue (deep sea), and light blue (shallow seas on continents), changes throughout time. These changes are the result of mountain-building, erosion, and the rise and fall of sea level throughout time. The white patches near the pole are the expanding and contracting polar icecaps.

Perpendicular Jet Stream & The North American Tectonic Valley... January 2017

This is video #2 in a series that started on December 26th, 2016
Time period of 1/1/17 - 1/11/17 is of great concern because of an extreme 500 mb temperature divergence between North America and the north eastern Pacific Ocean. The jet stream anomaly that will form during this time period is an indicator of a high stress phase underway in the CascadiaFractureZone, the Juan De Fuca, and the San Andreas Fault systems. The NewMadridFault will be of concern as January 2017 progresses.
January 2017 is a high watch month for North America based on three factors.
1 - Jet stream anomaly
2 - Tectonic stress
3 - Esoteric code
The jet stream is influenced from magnetic lines of force within the molten core of the earth. Abnormal long wave jet stream patterns mirror abnormal magnetic lines of flux within the Lithosphere, which in turn affects plate tectonics.

Is the cloud your single point of failure? Tectonic will fix it

Entire clouds can fail! This news keeps catching our eye ever more often in recent months. It was repeatedly demonstrated by providers once considered unbeatable. The most recent S3 outage took down almost all AWS services for multiple hours in US's busiest region. Many of today's most popular online services suddenly disappeared from radar. Can your application survive the next such event? With Kubernetes under the hood, it just might. Come to see how CoreOS's Tectonic offers multi cloud deployments that can save the day, when THAT day comes!

Tectonic Timebombs - Earthquakes Near and Far

http://www.world-earthquakes.com
"Earthquakes have been prominent in the news during the past year or so, with the deadly and damaging earthquakes from Haiti, Chile, New Zealand and, most recently Japan. I'll talk (and answer questions) about these quakes, as well as about the earthquake hazard from the faults in our back yard."
The speaker, Dr. Peggy Hellweg, is a "child of Cal". Her father was a UCB professor of physics for many years. After Sputnik, he slowly transitioned to K-12 science eduction, based on "experimentation" with how his own children learned to understand. Our speaker went on to study physics, herself, at the University of California San Diego, where she completed her BA after spending her junior year abroad in Germany. She then returned to Germany and earned a masters in physics at Goettingen. Finished with college for the time being, she turned to seismology and worked at the seismological laboratory of Germany's FederalInstitute of Earth Sciences and Resources. In the mid-nineteen-eighties, she returned to the United States, where she worked in earthquake monitoring at the United States Geological Survey. She earned her doctorate in 2000 at the University of Stuttgart, Germany, on seismicity associated with volcanoes. Since 2001 our speaker is at the Berkeley Seismological Laboratory, where she is now operations manager. The Berkeley Seismological Laboratory operates a network of high quality seismometer stations which record earthquakes from throughout the world.

Lecture date: 1996-02-20
Possibly the most singular aspect of the architecture of Jrn Utzon is his particular concern for the expressivity of structure and construction. Grounded in the tectonic line of the modern movement, his work can be seen as part of a continuous development extending from Auguste Perret to Carlo Scarpa. Kenneth Frampton examines Utzon in the light of the notion that modern architecture is as much about construction as space and abstract form. Frampton contemplates Utzon's relationship to topics such as Japanese architecture, platforms and plateaus, roof work and earthwork, boat building and church building, before discussing the Sydney Opera House.
Kenneth Frampton is WareProfessor in Architecture at Columbia University.
